Ingredients
- 1 cup Sorghum Rava
- 1 Potato medium size

- 3 tbsp Oil
- Salt to taste
- 3 cup Water
- 1 Bay Leaf small piece
- 1 Cloves
- 2 Cardamom
- 1 inch Wailong marati mogga, small piece
- 1 inch Cinnamon
- 1/2 inch Star Anise
- 1/2 tsp Caraway Seeds shahi jeera
- 3 tbsp Butter clarified, ghee
Instructions
Sauté Aromatics and Vegetables
- Heat oil in a pan or pot over medium heat. Add bay leaf, cloves, cardamom, cinnamon, star anise, and caraway seeds. Sauté for 1 minute until fragrant. Add the chopped onions and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the diced potatoes and cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Cook the Sorghum Rava
- Pour in the water and bring to a simmer. Add salt to taste. Gradually stir in the sorghum rava, ensuring no lumps form. Stir continuously for 1-2 minutes.
Simmer and Finish
- Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer for 10-12 minutes, or until the rava is cooked through and the liquid is absorbed. Stir gently halfway through to prevent sticking. Drizzle ghee over the top during the last few minutes of cooking.
Garnish and Serve
- Remove from heat and let it rest for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork. Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve hot with raita or chutney of your choice.

Expert Tips for the Best Sorghum Rava Biryani
- Toast the Rava: For a nuttier flavor, lightly toast the sorghum rava in a dry pan before adding it to the water. Be careful not to burn it.

- Vegetable Variations: Feel free to add other vegetables like peas, carrots, or beans to customize this recipe.
- Spice Level: Adjust the amount of spices to your preference. For a spicier biryani, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or green chilies.
